The sky had never turned that coulor before . It was the day of Nans Tāngi . The uncles and cousins and  Pāpā’s were doing the haka . Today was the day we were lowering her into the ground everyone was crying . Nan was always the person we could talk to we could always just turn up to her house and she would make us a mean feed she would always take care of us ” imma miss you Nan ” all my cousins said as we were lowering her after she was lowered into the ground we all chucked flowers in and some of us dropped hand fulls of dirt in then we went back to the Whare kai for a feed . Hangis and lollies and soft drinks . That night as we were driving home i remembered that Nan once said when i die i would become a bird and i would come into your home and check up on you she also said that on the first night that you lower me i would turn the sky a purple and red coulor so you know im safe up there and after watching the sky for abit i gave up and turned around but as soon as i went to stand up the sky turned those beautiful coulors so i knew she was safe up there .

My  reflection on camp . Camp was great we went there fourth week of school on the 17 February we went to mt mania camp in  Whangarei the first day traveling down to the camp we went to ruapekapeka and the whangrei pools that day was damp and wet and when we got to the camp we set our doorms up i was in a doorm with gene and scarlett . the second day of camp we played volleyball and set up the water slide and went on the pontoon then in the afternoon we went for a walk then went to surfing it was fun then went back to the dorm and  and had dinner then played spot light  the last day we cleaned up and went and played outside and went swimming and went home .

On Wednesday the 3rd of july kauri  and ngaio  class did the circus the whole time i got lots of weired stares to but that was fine we got dressed up we  got our face panited. I did fans with halena  I thank Nina and Ziah so much for help me not to give up and give things a try . My skill i learnt was juggiling and that was my favroite skill . i found hullahooping the trickeyest because it might seem easy for other people but  I have lost my abilitey to do it . i felt so neveros at the circus performance but after that i was fine . i woud like to get better at being confident .
